    About this ebook

    Perhaps Mick Jagger said it best in his iconic song "I Can't Get No Satisfaction." Edgar an aging transvestite can't find any satisfaction. A warm summer night finds him lonely and in the mood for love. He goes to a bar and picks up a young man. But will that interlude satisfy the malice lurking just below the surface? Jealousy of the guy's youthfulness and yet yearning to hold on the young man forever causes Edgar to do what he must to possess the young soul. Quirky, strange, and yet understandable in today's app filled quickie love.

    The poems, We Are Here now included. Celebrate what is strange and also what is great about our lives.
